Alternative Strategies for Traffic Flow-Management in Europe

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  21 October 2009

Abstract

This paper attempts to challenge some of the principles on which en-route airspace is presently allocated, whilst pointing out the practical difficulties of implementing any alternative strategy. The paper does not discuss airport capacity limitations and terminal area problems, although these also contribute to restrictions on traffic flow.
